    My mum bought me one of these as a gift a few years ago when I started stacking silver, and it's been locked away since. I always noticed the coin is not properly in the capsule as it should be, so I thought it might be an error possibly. Any thoughts?

    Welcome to the forum. Could the coin have possibly gotten out of the capsule?

    Just wondering if a packaging error is worth more...Lol

    I tried shaking it a bit to see if maybe the coin could come lose in the capsule, etc, and nothing.

    If it were me I'd open it up and put it back in. BUT it looks like there's a sticker over the opening flap thingy so just leave it. I don't think it's a big deal. It's a half gram coin. $25

    I reckon to the right person who collect oddities in the PM's you could charge a premium. A very small one but yeah, why not? As long as it is clearly a packaging error that couldn't have been just a shitty capsule ir something.
